Handworks Crochet and then Some!

First! Clothes I made and wore in ATL! I actually made this skirt I'm wearing last fall from a BWOF... and no I don't remember which one and yep, I'm to lazy to go look! lol! The top I made last week from a BWOF too.. I've made this simple T shirt 4 times now.. Love it! To the right... I love the skirt! Its a BWOF wrap skirt. I got the fabric up in Boston... The t is from the same BWOF pattern as the one above... I am not loving the black t with this skirt and I'm going to have to make something else to go with it. The bolero is a Burda pattern, the fabric is from Miami. I added serger crochet to the sleeves and I'm loving it! Gotta make a different shirt though.... Divan is the place to be in ATL on Sunday night... as you can see from these 2 pics! There's nothing quite like hanging out and all of a sudden someone breaks out into drum beats.. Now thats entertainment!!!! And it sounded SO good! Atlanta always amazes me.... and makes me happy! Here we are b...

Last night was long!!!! and it did get alittle wild... there were times I felt like I needed to duck and cover when the people in the picture on the left started doing their debka dance.... I was afraid I was gonna get kicked! Then later the poor hookah boy told me he DID get kicked! Ouch! It was a very fun night!! I think everyone that came in had a blast! Sam took so many pictures, Tony was up drumming and making people get up to dance.... which wasn't hard to do last night! There were so many people up dancing ALL night. I am SO tired from all the dancing I did Fri and Sat..... and kinda sore honestly. I hope next weekend is just like this one!

Times like last night its fun to be the bellydancer! People up dancing, laughing, clapping! There's so much energy being in the middle of it. I can dance longer and not get tired when its like this. I feel like I've done my job... their being entertained and having so much fun. I've got to share the joy my art of dance brings to me. I started dancing and performing because I feel creative, ya know, kinda like a artist! I keep dancing, esp. in the restaurant seen, because of nights like last night and people like these two in the pictures! They were a blast!
